| ABSTRACT: | A detailed hydrogeological study of the area had been made, and many data was collected concerning rainfall, evapotranspiration, recharge and pumping yields as well as transmissivity and storage coefficient of the aquifers. This data gave the possibility to elaborate groundwater models, which would help to reach the best management of groundwater resources in the area. A mathematical model was used rather than any other kind of model, for its simplicity. As a first illustration, a very simple model was developed on the upper aquifer system; its purpose was to check in steady-state flow the coherence of the data collected. |
